Anyway i really like all changes but pls consider 25 Pounder emplacment in Advanced Emplacement Regiment. That is simply incorrect both Ro. Artillery regiment and Concentrated fire operation can take out an Lefh. In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Vote for updated commander portraits2 Apr 2021, 16:52 PM Although I love the portraits and the idea it might be going a bit to far. I would agree with change that made Tiger commander to have tank crew uniform or Artillery commanders to wear artillery uniforms but imo that is enough. In: Lobby

Absolutely wrecking this ability versus the big targets while even staying at 125 MU for the ability... Tell me why ISU-152 vs JU-87 AT-strafe is threatend differently then. With 10 range less than elephant (HE) it is even more prone to stun abilities (PAK can get into that range). It is awfully slow too while JU-87 deals about the same damage to it as IL-2 rocket strafe to Elephant. Ju-87 penetrates ISU-152 frontally by the way. I have not claimed that the ability is fine in the patch, I have not tested enough to have an opinion. My only point was that your expectation to always penetrate was not justified. As for your the comparison with MBTs, flanking with MBT is more dificult than calling planes from a certain direction and the rockets are superior because they have deflection damage Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 15:34 PMgeneral_gawain I'm able to apologize if I'm wrong. A lot of people around here just ignore it if they made a mistake. Just distract with other arguments and don't talk about it anymore. An admirable quality, it indicates that you are not a "forum warrior" like the ones that lurk around here and are only interest in wining "fights". Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 15:34 PMgeneral_gawain Every AT ability is basically made to counter all enemy vehicles/tanks. That is the basic meaning of AT. But of course some abilities are better versus some targets and worse versus others. Don't try to use IL-2 rocket strafe at a mobile PUMA for example. You won't hit it. My point is that expecting from IL-2 to serve as the prime sources of AT imo is expecting too much from a commander that already give players superior AI. Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 15:34 PMgeneral_gawain 1) Il-2 has a lot of purposes, deleting howitzers or dealing heavy damage to OKW trucks for example. You just can't compare them. 2) Tank hunter Tactics is a mess. Conscript PTRS, why when you can have Penals with three of them? PTAB is just too bad, situational at best. This commander doesn't even has heavy AT mines but calls himself beeing a dedicated AT commander. There is more than one commander with better AT options. The AT bombing does not delete LeFH and the you are correct ability is bad in its role and does need redesign. Main point here is that the AT commander should have the most cost effective AT off map. AB commander already provides superior AI and does need one of the most cost efficient AT abilities. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Commander Update Beta 2021 - British Feedback2 Apr 2021, 16:04 PM Advanced Emplacement Regiment Defensive Operations Allow Ro E to build trenches/tank traps/caches Improved Fortification The free WP for Mortar pit seem better suited for artillery commander it also seem to require both mortars before it can be used, 17p barrage seem to require vet 1. I would suggest the following: Possibly trade some HP fro received damage so that emplacements can be repaired faster. Improved fortification mortar Cost 50 manpower reduced pop of pit by 2 and adds garrison bonus. or Cost 50 manpower reduced pop of pit by 2 and add counter fire as timed not cost ability. Improved fortification AA as is and now reduce pop by 2 also Improved fortification 17p Cost 50 MP, add the barrage, increases rotation by 10% reduces pop by 2. Possibly moving advance assembly to this ability freeing an spot Advanced Assembly cost to 50 MU now only repair vehicles Hold The Line replaced by "manned the defenses" infatry gains -20% received accuracy, non braced emplacement gain 10-20% damage reduction, infantry in garrison gain -20% damage reduction. Cost to 90 CP to 4. Precision Barrage possibly replace with an ability that does not hard counter Lefh In: COH2 Balance

Thread: Commander Update Beta 2021 - Soviet Feedback2 Apr 2021, 15:04 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 14:37 PMgeneral_gawain As I said as a reward. The same way most flanking tanks will penetrate opponent tanks from the rear to 100% since they will be very close too in most cases. Not really Tiger retains 140 rear armor and can bounce shot from most medium tanks, it still rewarding to flank it because the chance is much lower. Having IL-2 having the same chance of penetrating the rear of 222 and Elefant put Elefant in worse position since it can not move out of position fast enough. Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 14:37 PMgeneral_gawain My fault. Didn't want to get personal, but I did. No problem it happens, we simply need to try and avoid it. Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 14:37 PMgeneral_gawain 15 out of 22 commanders have a doctrinal tank, some have two. At the seven commanders left there is not a single commander without additional doctrinal AT options. In case of Airborne it is the IL2 rocket strafe. It is not a single trick pony, but a necessary mechanic to make the commander work. If there is a need for added AT in the commander one could just tweak another ability instead of expecting this ability to counter all enemy vehicles. LI-2 rocket being more cost efficient than IL-2, PTAB AT Bombing Run feel wrong to begin with since the commander already comes with superior AI and does not really need to be better than AT oriented commander in AT.

Thread: Commander Update Beta 2021 - British Feedback2 Apr 2021, 14:50 PM Raid Section This unit seem to some issues: The idea of unit that is not restricted by cover is interesting but there are some issues with implementation. Description misses a "not" and is make it should as the unit require to be used in cover. The icon of binoculars indicates a unit long range with reckon capabilities although it not. The unit start with 5 bolt action rifles and can pick 2 Bren or piat and combining sprint to a unit with with 2 bren or even 2 Piats is not the best of idea. Unit does suffers from construction penalty but that is not communicated to the player (in any case since RO.E are now T0 unit cashes/trenches could be easily moved to them). Unit does not have access to heavy gammon bomb although other doctrinal IS have. Vet 1 camo ability make very little sense and they would be better off with something else even if it received accuracy. Vickers-K is not very realistic candidate for an "assault rifle" type of weapon so you can simply add a offensive bren training" and give this properties to Bren as similar to Commandos asan "elite brain training light" version. The unit seem to be in the wrong commander. The commander already has flamers so that incendiary grenade is not that great and LMG commandos can the role of mid oriented aggressive unit. or one can keep the raid section and removed flamers/infiltration commandos from commander. Finally I see little reason for another versions of IS, redesign the unit as different version of Sappers and move to another commander. Or redesigned as recon squad having access to scoped Enfield emphasising on support/utility with lower pop and not cover restrictions. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Some Talks For USF's Armors.2 Apr 2021, 14:25 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 14:11 PMNorthWeapon Regarding exploit, if you mean USF player X leaves his m4 Sherman and then player Y enters the Sherman to upgrade it so player X can have an upgraded Sherman, then I think teamwork should be rewarded. I have the same opinion for the Vickers K drop. I think intentionally blocking teamwork for Vickers K drop and M4 Sherman upgrade is babysitting players too much and limiting creativity. If players have enough coordination to do such things, I think it is a great feature of the game and not a bug. Well the mod team does not seem to think so think and thus has removed vickers drop in the patch. Jump back to quoted post2 Apr 2021, 14:11 PMNorthWeapon I think trying so hard to figure out all the exploits and try to block it so players don't use it takes too much time and is too much babysitting. Things like multiple sturmtiger exploit, or giving WC51 to Assault Sections. There are 1 million "exploits", and I think it is silly to go after all of them. They are rare and unintended features that require exceptional effort and coordination to accomplish. I think starting production of a weaker default version of a unit to later upgrade it is the point of an upgrade. Upgrades are for improving the stats of a unit after its default version has been purchased. We purchase a Obersoldaten and then upgrade it with STG44s to make them better. We purchase a Panzer IVJ to upgrade them with commander ability. I think it is intentional. And you would be able purchase a 75mm dozer Sherman and upgrade it with HMG. You have not seen a single argument explaining why the Dozer should be an upgrade and not a separate unit. In: COH2 Balance
